Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (LADY LUCIANO) (4-1) - Veteran mare drops in class following a wide and even effort here facing a bit tougher Aug 7. Five-year-old as run well at this $25K tag in the past and trainer Gary Contessa had her work a bullet three furlongs on this strip Aug 18.

2nd pick: #1 (Champagne Ruby) (2-1) - Another veteran mare, this stretch runner won at this tag and trip July 17 at Belmont Park. She has some back class and it's noted that top jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. stays with her.

3rd pick: #7 (Dreamboat Annie) (8-1) - Longshot was a stakes winner back in June of 2015 at Belmont Park. Filly tired here facing tougher on the grass July 25 in her first since winning an allowance facing open company April 9 at Laurel. Think she can factor at a square price.

4th pick: #3 (Tahoe Tigress) (5-2) - Mare rallied to win here going seven furlongs for a $20K tag facing open company. It was her third start back off a 5.5 month break and she's proven in the past that once in shape she can string good efforts together.
